Paragraph: (Wiki_articles/wikiAlexander the Great-48.txt)
Sent 1: Alexander's body was laid in a gold anthropoid sarcophagus that was filled with honey, which was in turn placed in a gold casket.
Sent 2: According to Aelian, a seer called Aristander foretold that the land where Alexander was laid to rest "would be happy and unvanquishable forever".
Sent 3: Perhaps more likely, the successors may have seen possession of the body as a symbol of legitimacy, since burying the prior king was a royal prerogative.
Sent 4: While Alexander's funeral cortege was on its way to Macedon, Ptolemy seized it and took it temporarily to Memphis.
Sent 5: His successor, Ptolemy II Philadelphus, transferred the sarcophagus to Alexandria, where it remained until at least late Antiquity.
Sent 6: Ptolemy IX Lathyros, one of Ptolemy's final successors, replaced Alexander's sarcophagus with a glass one so he could convert the original to coinage.
Sent 7: The recent discovery of an enormous tomb in northern Greece, at Amphipolis, dating from the time of Alexander the Great has given rise to speculation that its original intent was to be the burial place of Alexander.

Sent 14: The so-called "Alexander Sarcophagus", discovered near Sidon and now in the Istanbul Archaeology Museum, is so named not because it was thought to have contained Alexander's remains, but because its bas-reliefs depict Alexander and his companions fighting the Persians and hunting.
Sent 15: It was originally thought to have been the sarcophagus of Abdalonymus (died 311 BC), the king of Sidon appointed by Alexander immediately following the battle of Issus in 331.
Sent 16: However, more recently, it has been suggested that it may date from earlier than Abdalonymus' death.

Paragraph: (Wiki_articles-paragraphs-wikiAlbrecht Durer-31.txt)
Sent 1: Appended to the last book, however, is a self-contained essay on aesthetics, which Durer worked on between 1512 and 1528, and it is here that we learn of his theories concerning 'ideal beauty'.
Sent 2: Durer rejected Alberti's concept of an objective beauty, proposing a relativist notion of beauty based on variety.
Sent 3: Nonetheless, Durer still believed that truth was hidden within nature, and that there were rules which ordered beauty, even though he found it difficult to define the criteria for such a code.
Sent 4: In 1512/13 his three criteria were function ('Nutz'), naive approval ('Wohlgefallen') and the happy medium ('Mittelmass').
Sent 5: However, unlike Alberti and Leonardo, Durer was most troubled by understanding not just the abstract notions of beauty but also as to how an artist can create beautiful images.
Sent 6: Between 1512 and the final draft in 1528, Durer's belief developed from an understanding of human creativity as spontaneous or inspired to a concept of 'selective inward synthesis'.
Sent 7: In other words, that an artist builds on a wealth of visual experiences in order to imagine beautiful things.
Sent 8: Durer's belief in the abilities of a single artist over inspiration prompted him to assert that "one man may sketch something with his pen on half a sheet of paper in one day, or may cut it into a tiny piece of wood with his little iron, and it turns out to be better and more artistic than another's work at which its author labours with the utmost diligence for a whole year."

Paragraph: (Wiki_articles/wikiAlexander II of Russia-7.txt)
Sent 1: Soon after the conclusion of peace, important changes were made in legislation concerning industry and commerce, and the new freedom thus afforded produced a large number of limited liability companies.
Sent 2: Plans were formed for building a great network of railways, partly for the purpose of developing the natural resources of the country, and partly for the purpose of increasing its power for defense and attack.
Sent 3: The existence of serfdom was tackled boldly, taking advantage of a petition presented by the Polish landed proprietors of the Lithuanian provinces and, hoping that their relations with the serfs might be regulated in a more satisfactory way (meaning in a way more satisfactory for the proprietors), he authorized the formation of committees "for ameliorating the condition of the peasants," and laid down the principles on which the amelioration was to be effected.
Sent 4: This step had been followed by one even more significant.
Sent 5: Without consulting his ordinary advisers, Alexander ordered the Minister of the Interior to send a circular to the provincial governors of European Russia (serfdom was rare in other parts), containing a copy of the instructions forwarded to the Governor-General of Lithuania, praising the supposed generous, patriotic intentions of the Lithuanian landed proprietors, and suggesting that perhaps the landed proprietors of other provinces might express a similar desire.
Sent 6: The hint was taken: in all provinces where serfdom existed, emancipation committees were formed.
Sent 7: The emancipation was not merely a humanitarian question capable of being solved instantaneously by imperial ukase.
Sent 8: It contained very complicated problems, deeply affecting the economic, social and political future of the nation.
Sent 9: Alexander had to choose between the different measures recommended to him and decide if the serfs would become agricultural laborers dependent economically and administratively on the landlords or if the serfs would be transformed into a class of independent communal proprietors.
Sent 10: The emperor gave his support to the latter project, and the Russian peasantry became one of the last groups of peasants in Europe to shake off serfdom.
Sent 11: The architects of the emancipation manifesto were Alexander's brother Konstantin, Yakov Rostovtsev, and Nikolay Milyutin.
Sent 12: On 3 March 1861, 6 years after his accession, the emancipation law was signed and published.

Sent 7: Alexander Hamilton served as one of the first trustees of the Hamilton-Oneida Academy in New York state.
Sent 8: Later the Academy received a college charter in 1812, and the school was formally renamed Hamilton College.Columbia University, Hamilton's alma mater, has official memorials to Hamilton on its campus in New York City.

Paragraph: (Wiki_articles/wikiAlexis de Tocqueville-12.txt)
Sent 1: Tocqueville asserted that the values that had triumphed in the North and were present in the South had begun to suffocate old-world ethics and social arrangements.
Sent 2: Legislatures abolished primogeniture and entails, resulting in more widely distributed land holdings.
Sent 3: This was a contrast to the general aristocratic pattern in which only the eldest child, usually a man, inherited the estate, which had the effect of keeping large estates intact from generation to generation.
Sent 4: In America, in contrast, landed elites were less likely to pass on fortunes to a single child by the action of primogeniture, which meant that as time went by, large estates became broken up within a few generations which, in turn, made the children more equal overall.
Sent 5: It was not always a negative development, according to Joshua Kaplan's interpretation of Tocqueville, since bonds of affection and shared experience between children often replaced the more formal relation between the eldest child and the siblings, characteristic of the previous aristocratic pattern.
Sent 6: Overall, in the new democracies, hereditary fortunes became exceedingly difficult to secure and more people were forced to struggle for their own living.
Sent 7: This rapidly democratizing society, as Tocqueville understood it, had a population devoted to "middling" values which wanted to amass, through hard work, vast fortunes.
Sent 8: In Tocqueville's mind, this explained why America was so different from Europe.
Sent 9: In Europe, he claimed, nobody cared about making money.
Sent 10: The lower classes had no hope of gaining more than minimal wealth, while the upper classes found it crass, vulgar, and unbecoming of their sort to care about something as unseemly as money; many were virtually guaranteed wealth and took it for granted.
Sent 11: At the same time in America, workers would see people fashioned in exquisite attire and merely proclaim that through hard work they too would soon possess the fortune necessary to enjoy such luxuries.
Sent 12: Despite maintaining with Aristotle, Montesquieu, and others that the balance of property determined the balance of power, Tocqueville argued that, as America showed, equitable property holdings did not ensure the rule of the best men.
Sent 13: In fact, it did quite the opposite.
Sent 14: The widespread, relatively equitable property ownership which distinguished America and determined its mores and values also explained why the American masses held elites in such contempt.
Question: How were the American lower class's views of wealth and fine possessions different from those of the European lower class? (false/0)
Question: Why were the children of American elites more equal to non-elite children than were the children of European elites? (true/1)
Question: How did Europeans' and Americans' attitudes toward amassing wealth differ? (true/2)
Paragraph: (Wiki_articles-paragraphs-wikiAlbert Einstein-22.txt)
Sent 1: To make certain the U.S. was aware of the danger, in July 1939, a few months before the beginning of World War II in Europe, Szilard and Wigner visited Einstein to explain the possibility of atomic bombs, which Einstein, a pacifist, said he had never considered.
Sent 2: He was asked to lend his support by writing a letter, with Szilard, to President Roosevelt, recommending the U.S. pay attention and engage in its own nuclear weapons research.
Sent 3: A secret German facility, apparently the largest of the Third Reich, covering 75 acres in an underground complex, was being re-excavated in Austria in December 2014 and may have been planned for use in nuclear research and development.
Sent 4: The letter is believed to be "arguably the key stimulus for the U.S. adoption of serious investigations into nuclear weapons on the eve of the U.S. entry into World War II".
Sent 5: In addition to the letter, Einstein used his connections with the Belgian Royal Family and the Belgian queen mother to get access with a personal envoy to the White House's Oval Office.
Sent 6: President Roosevelt could not take the risk of allowing Hitler to possess atomic bombs first.
Sent 7: As a result of Einstein's letter and his meetings with Roosevelt, the U.S. entered the "race" to develop the bomb, drawing on its "immense material, financial, and scientific resources" to initiate the Manhattan Project.
Sent 8: It became the only country to successfully develop an atomic bomb during World War II.
Sent 9: For Einstein, "war was a disease ... [and] he called for resistance to war."
Sent 10: By signing the letter to Roosevelt he went against his pacifist principles.
Sent 11: In 1954, a year before his death, Einstein said to his old friend, Linus Pauling, "I made one great mistake in my life--when I signed the letter to President Roosevelt recommending that atom bombs be made; but there was some justification--the danger that the Germans would make them ..."

Paragraph: (Wiki_articles/wikiAlexander the Great-38.txt)
Sent 1: After the death of Spitamenes and his marriage to Roxana (Roshanak in Bactrian) to cement relations with his new satrapies, Alexander turned to the Indian subcontinent.
Sent 2: He invited the chieftains of the former satrapy of Gandhara, in the north of what is now Pakistan, to come to him and submit to his authority.
Sent 3: Omphis(Indian name Ambhi Kumar), the ruler of Taxila, whose kingdom extended from the Indus to the Hydaspes (Jhelum), complied, but the chieftains of some hill clans, including the Aspasioi and Assakenoi sections of the Kambojas (known in Indian texts also as Ashvayanas and Ashvakayanas), refused to submit.
Sent 4: Ambhi hastened to relieve Alexander of his apprehension and met him with valuable presents, placing himself and all his forces at his disposal.
Sent 5: Alexander not only returned Ambhi his title and the gifts but he also presented him with a wardrobe of "Persian robes, gold and silver ornaments, 30 horses and 1000 talents in gold".
Sent 6: Alexander was emboldened to divide his forces, and Ambhi assisted Hephaestion and Perdiccas in constructing a bridge over the Indus where it bends at Hund (Fox 1973), supplied their troops with provisions, and received Alexander himself, and his whole army, in his capital city of Taxila, with every demonstration of friendship and the most liberal hospitality.
Sent 7: On the subsequent advance of the Macedonian king, Taxiles accompanied him with a force of 5000 men and took part in the battle of the Hydaspes River.
Sent 8: After that victory he was sent by Alexander in pursuit of Porus, to whom he was charged to offer favourable terms, but narrowly escaped losing his life at the hands of his old enemy.
Sent 9: Subsequently, however, the two rivals were reconciled by the personal mediation of Alexander; and Taxiles, after having contributed zealously to the equipment of the fleet on the Hydaspes, was entrusted by the king with the government of the whole territory between that river and the Indus.
Sent 10: A considerable accession of power was granted him after the death of Philip, son of Machatas; and he was allowed to retain his authority at the death of Alexander himself (323 BC), as well as in the subsequent partition of the provinces at Triparadisus, 321 BC.
Sent 11: In the winter of 327/326 BC, Alexander personally led a campaign against these clans; the Aspasioi of Kunar valleys, the Guraeans of the Guraeus valley, and the Assakenoi of the Swat and Buner valleys.
Sent 12: A fierce contest ensued with the Aspasioi in which Alexander was wounded in the shoulder by a dart, but eventually the Aspasioi lost.
Sent 13: Alexander then faced the Assakenoi, who fought in the strongholds of Massaga, Ora and Aornos.
Sent 14: The fort of Massaga was reduced only after days of bloody fighting, in which Alexander was wounded seriously in the ankle.
Sent 15: According to Curtius, "Not only did Alexander slaughter the entire population of Massaga, but also did he reduce its buildings to rubble".

Paragraph: (Wiki_articles/wikiAlexander the Great-54.txt)
Sent 1: Alexander earned the epithet "The Great" due to his unparalleled success as a military commander.
Sent 2: He never lost a battle, despite typically being outnumbered.
Sent 3: This was due to use of terrain, phalanx and cavalry tactics, bold strategy, and the fierce loyalty of his troops.
Sent 4: The Macedonian phalanx, armed with the sarissa, a spear 6 metres (20 ft) long, had been developed and perfected by Philip II through rigorous training, and Alexander used its speed and maneuverability to great effect against larger but more disparate Persian forces.
Sent 5: Alexander also recognized the potential for disunity among his diverse army, which employed various languages and weapons.
Sent 6: He overcame this by being personally involved in battle, in the manner of a Macedonian king.
Sent 7: In his first battle in Asia, at Granicus, Alexander used only a small part of his forces, perhaps 13,000 infantry with 5,000 cavalry, against a much larger Persian force of 40,000.
Sent 8: Alexander placed the phalanx at the center and cavalry and archers on the wings, so that his line matched the length of the Persian cavalry line, about 3 km (1.86 mi).
Sent 9: By contrast, the Persian infantry was stationed behind its cavalry.
Sent 10: This ensured that Alexander would not be outflanked, while his phalanx, armed with long pikes, had a considerable advantage over the Persian's scimitars and javelins.
Sent 11: Macedonian losses were negligible compared to those of the Persians.
Sent 12: At Issus in 333 BC, his first confrontation with Darius, he used the same deployment, and again the central phalanx pushed through.
Sent 13: Alexander personally led the charge in the center, routing the opposing army.
Sent 14: At the decisive encounter with Darius at Gaugamela, Darius equipped his chariots with scythes on the wheels to break up the phalanx and equipped his cavalry with pikes.
Sent 15: Alexander arranged a double phalanx, with the center advancing at an angle, parting when the chariots bore down and then reforming.
Sent 16: The advance was successful and broke Darius' center, causing the latter to flee once again.
Sent 17: When faced with opponents who used unfamiliar fighting techniques, such as in Central Asia and India, Alexander adapted his forces to his opponents' style.
Sent 18: Thus, in Bactria and Sogdiana, Alexander successfully used his javelin throwers and archers to prevent outflanking movements, while massing his cavalry at the center.
Question: How did Alexander change the use of the phalanx at the battle of Gaugamela? (true/0)
Question: How did Alexander use the phalanx in the battle of Granicus? (true/1)
Question: Why was Alexander called Alexander "The Great? (true/2)

Paragraph: (Wiki_articles/wikiAlexis de Tocqueville-29.txt)
Sent 1: In his 1847 Report on Algeria, Tocqueville declared that Europe should avoid making the same mistake they made with the European colonization of the Americas in order to avoid the bloody consequences.
Sent 2: More particularly he reminds his countrymen of a solemn caution whereby he warns them that if the methods used towards the Algerian people remain unchanged, colonization will end in a blood bath.
Sent 3: Tocqueville includes in his report on Algeria that the fate of their soldiers and finances depended on how the French government treats the various native populations of Algeria, including the various Arab tribes, independent Kabyles living in the Atlas Mountains, and the powerful political leader Abd-el-Kader.
Sent 4: In his various letters and essays on Algeria, Tocqueville discusses contrasting strategies by which a European country can approach imperialism.
Sent 5: In particular, the author differentiates between what he terms 'dominance' and a particular version of 'colonization'.
Sent 6: The latter stresses the obtainment and protection of land and passageways that promise commercial wealth.
Sent 7: In the case of Algeria, the Port of Algiers, and the control over the Strait of Gibraltar, were considered by Tocqueville to be particular valuable.
Sent 8: Direct control of the political operations of the entirety of Algeria, however, was not.
Sent 9: Thus the author stresses domination over only certain points of political influence as a means to colonization of commercially valuable areas.
Sent 10: Tocqueville argued that domination via violent means, though unpleasant, is necessary for colonization and justified by the laws of war.
Sent 11: Such laws are not discussed in detail; however, given that the goal of the French mission in Algeria was to obtain commercial and military interest as opposed to self-defense, it can be deduced that Tocqueville would not concur with Just war theory's jus ad bellum criteria of just cause.
Sent 12: Further, given that Tocqueville approved of the use of force to eliminate civilian housing in enemy territory, his approach does not accord with Just War Theory's jus in bellow criteria of proportionality and discrimination.
Question: In what report did Tocqueville state that if the methods for colonization did not change then colonization of the Algerian people would end in a blood bath? (true/0)
Question: Was Tocqueville interested in control over all of Algeria? If not, what parts did he want to control? (false/1)

Sent 2: The portraits include Cardinal-Elector Albert of Mainz; Frederick the Wise, elector of Saxony; the humanist scholar Willibald Pirckheimer; Philipp Melanchthon, and Erasmus of Rotterdam.
Sent 3: For those of the Cardinal, Melanchthon, and Durer's final major work, a drawn portrait of the Nuremberg patrician Ulrich Starck, Durer depicted the sitters in profile, perhaps reflecting a more mathematical approach.
Sent 4: Despite complaining of his lack of a formal classical education, Durer was greatly interested in intellectual matters and learned much from his boyhood friend Willibald Pirckheimer, whom he no doubt consulted on the content of many of his images.
Sent 5: He also derived great satisfaction from his friendships and correspondence with Erasmus and other scholars.
Sent 6: Durer succeeded in producing two books during his lifetime.

Sent 1: In architecture Durer cites Vitruvius but elaborates his own classical designs and columns.
Sent 2: In typography, Durer depicts the geometric construction of the Latin alphabet, relying on Italian precedent.
Sent 3: However, his construction of the Gothic alphabet is based upon an entirely different modular system.
Sent 4: The fourth book completes the progression of the first and second by moving to three-dimensional forms and the construction of polyhedra.
Sent 5: Here Durer discusses the five Platonic solids, as well as seven Archimedean semi-regular solids, as well as several of his own invention.
Sent 6: In all these, Durer shows the objects as nets.
Sent 7: Finally, Durer discusses the Delian Problem and moves on to the 'construzione legittima', a method of depicting a cube in two dimensions through linear perspective.
Sent 8: It was in Bologna that Durer was taught (possibly by Luca Pacioli or Bramante) the principles of linear perspective, and evidently became familiar with the 'costruzione legittima' in a written description of these principles found only, at this time, in the unpublished treatise of Piero della Francesca.
Sent 9: He was also familiar with the 'abbreviated construction' as described by Alberti and the geometrical construction of shadows, a technique of Leonardo da Vinci.
Sent 10: Although Durer made no innovations in these areas, he is notable as the first Northern European to treat matters of visual representation in a scientific way, and with understanding of Euclidean principles.
Sent 11: In addition to these geometrical constructions, Durer discusses in this last book of Underweysung der Messung an assortment of mechanisms for drawing in perspective from models and provides woodcut illustrations of these methods that are often reproduced in discussions of perspective.

Sent 7: During an address to Caltech's students, Einstein noted that science was often inclined to do more harm than good.
Sent 8: This aversion to war also led Einstein to befriend author Upton Sinclair and film star Charlie Chaplin, both noted for their pacifism.
Sent 9: Carl Laemmle, head of Universal Studios, gave Einstein a tour of his studio and introduced him to Chaplin.
Sent 10: They had an instant rapport, with Chaplin inviting Einstein and his wife, Elsa, to his home for dinner.

Paragraph: (Wiki_articles/wikiAlexander the Great-66.txt)
Sent 1: Alexander married twice: Roxana, daughter of the Bactrian nobleman Oxyartes, out of love; and Stateira II, a Persian princess and daughter of Darius III of Persia, for political reasons.
Sent 2: He apparently had two sons, Alexander IV of Macedon of Roxana and, possibly, Heracles of Macedon from his mistress Barsine.
Sent 3: He lost another child when Roxana miscarried at Babylon.
Sent 4: Alexander also had a close relationship with his friend, general, and bodyguard Hephaestion, the son of a Macedonian noble.
Sent 5: Hephaestion's death devastated Alexander.
Sent 6: This event may have contributed to Alexander's failing health and detached mental state during his final months.
Sent 7: Alexander's sexuality has been the subject of speculation and controversy.
Sent 8: No ancient sources stated that Alexander had homosexual relationships, or that Alexander's relationship with Hephaestion was sexual.
Sent 9: Aelian, however, writes of Alexander's visit to Troy where "Alexander garlanded the tomb of Achilles and Hephaestion that of Patroclus, the latter riddling that he was a beloved of Alexander, in just the same way as Patroclus was of Achilles".
Sent 10: Noting that the word eromenos (ancient Greek for beloved) does not necessarily bear sexual meaning, Alexander may have been bisexual, which in his time was not controversial.
Sent 11: Green argues that there is little evidence in ancient sources that Alexander had much carnal interest in women; he did not produce an heir until the very end of his life.
Sent 12: However, he was relatively young when he died, and Ogden suggests that Alexander's matrimonial record is more impressive than his father's at the same age.
Sent 13: Apart from wives, Alexander had many more female companions.
Sent 14: Alexander accumulated a harem in the style of Persian kings, but he used it rather sparingly; showing great self-control in "pleasures of the body".
Sent 15: Nevertheless, Plutarch described how Alexander was infatuated by Roxana while complimenting him on not forcing himself on her.
Sent 16: Green suggested that, in the context of the period, Alexander formed quite strong friendships with women, including Ada of Caria, who adopted him, and even Darius's mother Sisygambis, who supposedly died from grief upon hearing of Alexander's death.

Paragraph: (Wiki_articles-paragraphs-wikiAlbert Einstein-62.txt)
Sent 1: Einstein was displeased with quantum theory and mechanics (the very theory he helped create), despite its acceptance by other physicists, stating that God "is not playing at dice."
Sent 2: Einstein continued to maintain his disbelief in the theory, and attempted unsuccessfully to disprove it until he died at the age of 76.
Sent 3: In 1917, at the height of his work on relativity, Einstein published an article in Physikalische Zeitschrift that proposed the possibility of stimulated emission, the physical process that makes possible the maser and the laser.
Sent 4: This article showed that the statistics of absorption and emission of light would only be consistent with Planck's distribution law if the emission of light into a mode with n photons would be enhanced statistically compared to the emission of light into an empty mode.
Sent 5: This paper was enormously influential in the later development of quantum mechanics, because it was the first paper to show that the statistics of atomic transitions had simple laws.
Sent 6: Einstein discovered Louis de Broglie's work, and supported his ideas, which were received skeptically at first.
Sent 7: In another major paper from this era, Einstein gave a wave equation for de Broglie waves, which Einstein suggested was the Hamilton-Jacobi equation of mechanics.
Sent 8: This paper would inspire Schrodinger's work of 1926.

Sent 3: The Seven Sorrows Polyptych, commissioned by Frederick III of Saxony in 1496, was executed by Durer and his assistants c.
Sent 4: Around 1503-1505 he produced the first seventeen of a set illustrating the Life of the Virgin, which he did not finish for some years.
Sent 5: Neither these, nor the Great Passion, were published as sets until several years later, but prints were sold individually in considerable numbers.
Sent 6: During the same period Durer trained himself in the difficult art of using the burin to make engravings.
Sent 7: It is possible he had begun learning this skill during his early training with his father, as it was also an essential skill of the goldsmith.
Sent 8: In 1496 he executed the Prodigal Son, which the Italian Renaissance art historian Giorgio Vasari singled out for praise some decades later, noting its Germanic quality.
Sent 9: He was soon producing some spectacular and original images, notably Nemesis (1502), The Sea Monster (1498), and Saint Eustace (c.
Sent 10: 1501), with a highly detailed landscape background and animals.
Sent 11: His landscapes of this period, such as Pond in the Woods and Willow Mill, are quite different from his earlier watercolours.
Sent 12: There is a much greater emphasis on capturing atmosphere, rather than depicting topography.
Sent 13: He made a number of Madonnas, single religious figures, and small scenes with comic peasant figures.

Paragraph: (Wiki_articles/wikiAlexis de Tocqueville-27.txt)
Sent 1: Tocqueville thought the conquest of Algeria was important for two reasons: first, his understanding of the international situation and France's position in the world, and, second, changes in French society.
Sent 2: Tocqueville believed that war and colonization would "restore national pride, threatened", he believed, by "The gradual softening of social mores" in the middle classes.
Sent 3: Their taste for "material pleasures" was spreading to the whole of society, giving it "an example of weakness and egotism".
Sent 4: Applauding the methods of General Bugeaud, Tocqueville went so far to claim that "war in Africa is a science.
Sent 5: Everyone is familiar with its rules and everyone can apply those rules with almost complete certainty of success.
Sent 6: One of the greatest services that Field Marshal Bugeaud has rendered his country is to have spread, perfected and made everyone aware of this new science."
Sent 7: Tocqueville advocated racial segregation in Algeria with two distinct legislations, one for European colonists and one for the Arab population.
Sent 8: Such a two-tier arrangement would be fully realised with the 1870 Cremieux decree and the Indigenousness Code, which extended French citizenship to European settlers and Algerian Jews, whereas Muslim Algerians would be governed by Muslim law and restricted to a second-class citizenship.
Question: Why did Tocqueville applaud General Bugeaud's methods? (false/0)

Paragraph: (Wiki_articles/wikiAlexander II of Russia-23.txt)
Sent 1: Alexander II's death caused a great setback for the reform movement.
Sent 2: One of his last ideas was to draft plans for an elected parliament, or Duma, which were completed the day before he died but not yet released to the Russian people.
Sent 3: In a matter of 48 hours, Alexander II planned to release his plan for the duma to the Russian people.
Sent 4: Had he lived, Russia might have followed a path to constitutional monarchy instead of the long road of oppression that defined his successor's reign.
Sent 5: The first action Alexander III took after his father's death was to tear up those plans.
Sent 6: A Duma would not come into fruition until 1905, when Alexander II's grandson, Nicholas II, commissioned the Duma following extreme pressure on the monarchy as a result of the Russian Revolution of 1905.
Sent 7: The assassination triggered major suppression of civil liberties in Russia, and police brutality burst back in full force after experiencing some restraint under the reign of Alexander II, whose death was witnessed first-hand by his son, Alexander III, and his grandson, Nicholas II, both future emperors who vowed not to have the same fate befall them.
Sent 8: Both of them used the Okhrana to arrest protestors and uproot suspected rebel groups, creating further suppression of personal freedom for the Russian people.
Sent 9: A series of anti-Jewish pogroms and antisemitic legislation, the May Laws, were yet another result.
Sent 10: Finally, the tsar's assassination also inspired anarchists to advocate "'propaganda by deed'--the use of a spectacular act of violence to incite revolution."
Sent 11: With construction starting in 1883, the Church of the Savior on Blood was built on the site of Alexander's assassination and dedicated in his memory.

Paragraph: (Wiki_articles-paragraphs-wikiAlbania-71.txt)
Sent 1: Albanian was proved to be an Indo-European language in 1854 by the German philologist Franz Bopp.
Sent 2: The Albanian language comprises its own branch of the Indo-European language family.
Sent 3: Some scholars believe that Albanian derives from Illyrian while others claim that it derives from Daco-Thracian.
Sent 4: (Illyrian and Daco-Thracian, however, might have been closely related languages; see Thraco-Illyrian.) Establishing longer relations, Albanian is often compared to Balto-Slavic on the one hand and Germanic on the other, both of which share a number of isoglosses with Albanian.
Sent 5: Moreover, Albanian has undergone a vowel shift in which stressed, long o has fallen to a, much like in the former and opposite the latter.
Sent 6: Likewise, Albanian has taken the old relative jos and innovatively used it exclusively to qualify adjectives, much in the way Balto-Slavic has used this word to provide the definite ending of adjectives.
Sent 7: The cultural renaissance was first of all expressed through the development of the Albanian language in the area of church texts and publications, mainly of the Catholic region in the North, but also of the Orthodox in the South.
Sent 8: The Protestant reforms invigorated hopes for the development of the local language and literary tradition when cleric Gjon Buzuku brought into the Albanian language the Catholic liturgy, trying to do for the Albanian language what Luther did for German.

Paragraph: (Wiki_articles-paragraphs-wikiAlbert Einstein-66.txt)
Sent 1: General relativity includes a dynamical spacetime, so it is difficult to see how to identify the conserved energy and momentum.
Sent 2: Noether's theorem allows these quantities to be determined from a Lagrangian with translation invariance, but general covariance makes translation invariance into something of a gauge symmetry.
Sent 3: The energy and momentum derived within general relativity by Noether's presecriptions do not make a real tensor for this reason.
Sent 4: Einstein argued that this is true for fundamental reasons, because the gravitational field could be made to vanish by a choice of coordinates.
Sent 5: He maintained that the non-covariant energy momentum pseudotensor was in fact the best description of the energy momentum distribution in a gravitational field.
Sent 6: This approach has been echoed by Lev Landau and Evgeny Lifshitz, and others, and has become standard.
Sent 7: The use of non-covariant objects like pseudotensors was heavily criticized in 1917 by Erwin Schrodinger and others.
Question: Who's theory did not have a more precise symmetry for conserved energy and momentum? (false/0)

Paragraph: (Wiki_articles/wikiAlexander the Great-82.txt)
Sent 1: Alexander the Great's accomplishments and legacy have been depicted in many cultures.
Sent 2: Alexander has figured in both high and popular culture beginning in his own era to the present day.
Sent 3: The Alexander Romance, in particular, has had a significant impact on portrayals of Alexander in later cultures, from Persian to medieval European to modern Greek.
Sent 4: Alexander may already have considered himself as the "King of Asia" after his victory at Issos, a conception strengthened by his subsequent successes.
Sent 5: The conception might have inspired the title given to Alexander in Babylonian documents, "king of the world (since "king of Asia" had no meaning in Babylonian geography).
Sent 6: It might also be alluded in the sarcastic comments by Anaxarchus, trying to rouse Alexander after the murder of Cleitus.
Sent 7: or in the orator Demades' comments that if Alexander were dead, "The whole world would stink of his corpse".
Sent 8: Alexander is called "kosmokrator", ruler of the world, in the later Alexander Romance.
Sent 9: Alexander features prominently in modern Greek folklore, more so than any other ancient figure.
Sent 10: The colloquial form of his name in modern Greek ("O Megalexandros") is a household name, and he is the only ancient hero to appear in the Karagiozis shadow play.
Sent 11: One well-known fable among Greek seamen involves a solitary mermaid who would grasp a ship's prow during a storm and ask the captain "Is King Alexander alive?".
Sent 12: The correct answer is "He is alive and well and rules the world!", causing the mermaid to vanish and the sea to calm.
Sent 13: Any other answer would cause the mermaid to turn into a raging Gorgon who would drag the ship to the bottom of the sea, all hands aboard.

Paragraph: (Wiki_articles/wikiAlexander the Great-75.txt)
Sent 1: Some of the most unusual effects of Hellenization can be seen in Afghanistan and India, in the region of the relatively late-arising Greco-Bactrian Kingdom (250 BC-125 BC) in modern Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Tajikistan and the Greco-Indian Kingdom (180 BC - 10 CE) in modern Afghanistan and India.
Sent 2: There on the newly formed Silk Road Greek culture apparently hybridized with Indian, and especially Buddhist culture.
Sent 3: The resulting syncretism known as Greco-Buddhism heavily influenced the development of Buddhism and created a culture of Greco-Buddhist art.
Sent 4: These Greco-Buddhist kingdoms sent some of the first Buddhist missionaries to China, Sri Lanka, and the Mediterranean (Greco-Buddhist monasticism).
Sent 5: The first figural portrayals of the Buddha, previously avoided by Buddhists, appeared at this time; they were modeled on Greek statues of Apollo.
Sent 6: Several Buddhist traditions may have been influenced by the ancient Greek religion: the concept of Boddhisatvas is reminiscent of Greek divine heroes, and some Mahayana ceremonial practices (burning incense, gifts of flowers, and food placed on altars) are similar to those practiced by the ancient Greeks.
Sent 7: One Greek king, Menander I, probably became Buddhist, and was immortalized in Buddhist literature as 'Milinda'.
Sent 8: The process of Hellenization extended to the sciences, where ideas from Greek astronomy filtered eastward and had profoundly influenced Indian astronomy by the early centuries AD.
Sent 9: For example, Greek astronomical instruments dating to the 3rd century BC were found in the Greco-Bactrian city of Ai Khanoum in modern-day Afghanistan while the Greek concept of a spherical earth surrounded by the spheres of planets was adopted in India and eventually supplanted the long-standing Indian cosmological belief of a flat and circular earth.
Sent 10: The Yavanajataka and Paulisa Siddhanta texts in particular show Greek influence.
Question: Greco-Buddhism was the result of the meshing between Greek culture and culture of which country? (true/0)
